-Alt charging alone is unlikely to get lead-acid chemistries fully charged since Absorption can take hours.  Incomplete charge (Partial State of Charge, or PSOC) over time will result in [[electrical:batterycide|battery murder]].   +Alt charging alone is unlikely to get lead-acid chemistries fully charged since Absorption can take hours.  Incomplete charge ([[electrical:12v:psoc|Partial State of Charge]], or PSOC) over time will result in [[electrical:batterycide|battery murder]].
